10mm all compatible powders load data

Your IMR Blue 8.4 load is tracking near the same as your other Blue Dot test using 8.4 grains with 180 grain bullets. 

Those who tested it in 12 gauge shotshells saw nearly exact if not slightly more velocity for the IMR Blue as same exact weights of Blue Dot.

Blue Dot really needs to be pushed so the pressure and heat will make it yield its best numbers, IMR Blue is likely going to be the same...

I'm thinking the same thing, just working up slowly.

We'll know soon enough

No love for the Barnes bullets? Or did I just miss it? Looking for a good hunting load with the 155 grain Barnes out of a G20LS.

Well had you seen the Buffalo Bore offering?  Power Pistol can give good results...about 1450 fps.
The pull down showed a very scary loading where the powder was compressed into a hard packed pellet at 11.0 grains...

Yeah I actually commented on one thread that had that. Barnes says tops out at 7.8 grains and Quickload shows high pressure at about 8 grains. I loaded up some starting at 7.5 and went all the way to 11. I plan to start low and check brass at every 1/2 grain increment.
